  1. Sharma looks to have slimmed down from the 345 lbs reported not long ago
  2. Makes sense for Dallas to take QE on day 2. Give him a year to watch and Dalla can start the rebuild by dumping “Albatross” Prescott.
  3. Willams 3rd or later — he lacks athleticism and his film is bad Helm 5th or later — mediocre blocker and lacks athleticism
  4. In evaluating the coaching changes, I see Orphey as a young Terry Joseph and Akina as similar to Scottie Hazelton. The mystery is Keynodo Hudson. How does he compare to Coach Gideon? Have we taken a small step back from the 2024 staff or is it a wash?
  5. In 2024, he was the “Assistant Wide Receivers Coach” at Boise State
  6. If I recall correctly, Jonah’s brother was picked at the end of the first round of the MLB draft and hasn’t made the Majors. Maybe Jonah thinks that he has a better shot at the NFL than the Major Leagues.
  7. Hell yeah!!!
  8. Chad Scott better get to work
  9. True. We need a Notre Dame/Nebraska/Penn State type TE in the Spring Portal
  10. Sark is still going through candidates but the Nebraska RB coach is a name to watch (which in my opinion would be a disappointment if true)
  11. In the Roundup podcast, Bobby and Gerry just said that Hall and Samples are not currently being considered.
  12. I’ve seen the name — he is described as a Tashard Choice starter kit without any skins on wall. 3 years ago, he would have worked for us but we need a more established, well known coach to close a 2026 class that has two super bluechip backs there for the taking.
  13. Agreed. I didn’t even consider him for that reason until a connected poster with a track record on OB mentioned that Gillespie was a name he had heard mentioned.
  14. Carlos Locklyn (OSU), Robert Gillespie (Alabama), Tony Alford (Michigan), Jabbar Juluke (Florida), Kevin Smith (Ole Miss), Chris Gilbert (Texas), Samples (Oregon) This only includes names that I’ve heard as possibilities. Frank Wilson (LSU) and Deland McCullough (ND) would go to the top of the list.
  15. For me, Samples is on the list but not at the top, which is significantly higher than a RB coach from Nebraska
  16. No. Not on the list. 😁
  17. NIL and Chris Gilbert got Justus Terry. He also lost two DL we already had committed and had to flip Sharma and Charles. It looked bleak in June. That’s what happens when you start a lap down in recruiting.
  18. They need a coach that can land Osborne and an SEC power back. They are on a silver platter for the 2026 class. A non-recruiting NFL RB coach is not going to get that done.
  19. Alabama’s RB and Assistant HC since 2021. Played in the NFL, coached throughout the SEC, originally from Hattiesburg, Mississippi. One of the top RB coaches in the country. I didn’t think he was in play and he may or may not be. The poster who heard the name is connected though.
  20. BlueOctober on OB says “Gillespie is a name I’ve heard”. That would be a splash hire.
  21. Former Dallas Cowboys RB stolen from Lincoln Riley, Choice was a bit of a splash. Recruits knew who he was.
  22. We took Choice from Lincoln Riley and USC; that qualifies as a bit of a splash hire. That’s hardly the same as taking a RB coach from say Baylor.
  23. I’d prefer Carlos Locklyn, but Kevin Smith makes a lot of sense.
  24. Chris Jackson said that he was way behind for the 2024 class. Kenny Baker said the same thing when he was hired.
  25. The position coach is “a reason” why recruits pick a school. The margins are thin in high profile recruitments, the kind we are thankfully in now. We are fighting the big boys for elite recruits. They all are winning, have great coaches who send kids to the NFL and massive NIL. You don’t want to go into that fight with a position coach “trying to catch up.”
